The situation in the DB area is in silent mode.
While we are all waiting for more good news from the Third Army Corps, and there will be, I would like to note that the situation in the ROV has significantly worsened in a number of areas in the BD zone.
In particular, in the Kharkiv region, in addition to the “Charter”, which is putting pressure on the Dvorichny bridgehead and displacing the enemy not only from the Kreidyany and Korobochkiny zones, but also in Dvorichny itself, the positions of the SOU in the area of \u200b\u200bVovchanskyi farms have been improved. This especially applies to the zone of the botanical reserve “Vovchanskyi” and Siversko-Donetsk.
In the Donetsk region, the situation on the eastern flank of the Slavyansk-Kramatorsk bridgehead, in the area from Piskunivka to Rai-Oleksandrivka, has begun to change for the worse for the enemy. There is an extremely positive trend on the southern bank of the Seversky-Donets River in the “Cretaceous Flora” area.
In the Konstantinivka direction, the enemy lost the initiative in bypassing the city on the flanks, in particular, he got stuck in the area of Khrushchovsky Pond and Novodmytrivka. Against this background, the SOU not only continue to control the northern areas of Konstantinivka, but also continue to counterattack in the city center.
Events began in the Dobropil direction that are painfully reminiscent of what we saw in August-September 2025, when the Russian 51st OVA tried to break through to Dobropil and as a result suffered the heaviest losses. It was then that Mikhail Drapatom was tasked with extinguishing the “fire” that broke out in this direction. The actions of that period allowed us to significantly slow down the enemy’s advance, and now the 1st AK of the NGU led by Denis “Radis” Prokopenko has already conducted a sweep in the Torske area and created a number of unpleasant situations for the ROV on a 35-km front. I think we will hear about this soon.
At the same time, completely unnoticed by our information space, the “Audit” operation was carried out by units of the 40th Special Operations Brigade in the Donetsk region, which allowed expanding the SOU control zone by 5.6 km². Of course, against the background of hundreds of square kilometers, the achievements of the “Troika” look insignificant, but this is extremely hard work, detailed planning and a reserve for the development of the initiative. The “Troika” is currently performing colossal and fundamental work, but let’s, dear journalists and TV channels of the marathon pool, not forget about other units that are achieving success in the most difficult areas of the DB.
But, it seems to me, no less intriguing than the release of the commander of the 3rd AK, Brigadier General Andriy Biletsky, with another official report on the results of the 4th season of “Vivaldi”, is the expectation of coverage of events in the border zone of the Donetsk, Zaporizhia and Dnipro regions, on a 70 km long front.
Here the enemy is clearly on the verge of collapse.
The enemy loses control of an important crossing on the H-15 highway, on both banks of the Mokri Yala River.
After the ROV were pushed out of the Novopavlivs’kyi forest and the Dibrovsky reserve, they found themselves in an extremely vulnerable position on both banks of the Voronna, with very unpleasant relief and landscape features of the area for defense. I will not hide it, I will not be surprised if we soon see the occupiers hiding in the ruins of Velikaya Novoselka, trying to use the Mokry Yaly, Kashaglach and Shaytanka rivers as natural lines of defense.
The enemy’s situation is not better in the Yanchul-Gaichul interfluve. There is also pressure on their positions along the banks, and if the flank along Velikaya Novoselka gives way, everything here will begin to fall apart much faster than you can imagine.
In the Orikhiv direction, the enemy has been trying quite intensively in recent weeks to switch to the mode of a mad attack aircraft, intending to infiltrate their kamikazes bypassing Malaya Tokmachka and Novodanylivka. It did not work. It turned out that the enemy began to fix Ukrainian units in the area of ”rabochka”.
The 58th OVA also fails to regain control over most of Stepnogorsk and the northern districts of Plavni, although they maintain stable control over the 3rd microdistrict. The 58th OVA also threw a lot of its forces into maintaining control over Route 08-12 from Stepovoye to Shcherbaky.
That is, it is impossible to talk about sufficient forces and resources in the Dnipro Military District for large-scale operations, they do not exist. And as soon as they are exhausted, this area will begin to collapse.
And that’s why October, in silence, seems no less intriguing than any other month this year, and perhaps even more so.
Let’s watch! And let’s not sprinkle ashes on our heads. Ashes should be sprinkled on our heads on Frunzenskaya Embankment*.
More to come!

“Here the enemy is clearly on the verge of collapse.”
With daily attacks on civilian apartment buildings, bridges, warehouses, and energy infrastructure by the mafia state, it’s very easy to lose sight of what’s happening on the front. Here, the AFU is doing quite well. The mafia army is not a second-rate army; it’s a third-rate army. This is mainly due to its piss poor leadership and low-quality junk troops. The only thing it’s got going for it is its mass.
